No itinerary suggested by this navi-
gation system should ever override

in a dangerous situation, or take you
into an area you consider unsafe.
●The advice provided by the naviga-
tion system is to be regarded as a
suggestion only. There may be times
when the navigation system displays

fails to suggest the shortest route, or
fails to direct you to your desired
destination. In such instances, rely
on your own judgement taking into
account the driving conditions at the
time.●Do not use the navigation system to
locate emergency services. The data-
base does not contain a complete
listing of emergency services such as
police stations, fire stations, hospi-
tals and walk-in clinics. Please show
discretion and ask for directions in
such instances.

sible for your driving safety.

vehicle is stopped at a safe place
and the parking brake is on.
